Package: mdadm Version: 2.5.6-9 Severity: important
I'm using root=UUID=... on one of my testing systems where the rootpartition is laying on SW-RAID. Booting the system does not work with udev/initramfs-tools/mdadm because mdadm does not have a udevtrigger call *after* md arrays are being assembled. Therefore the /dev/disk/by-uuid/-symlink for /dev/md0 is missing -> booting via root=UUID=... fails then. Please notice that there's a bug in current udev too - see #416654 for my bugreport. Solution: all that has to be done regarding mdadm is adding a udevtrigger call to the end of the initramfs-tools-hook of mdadm, like: verbose && log_begin_msg "Executing udevtrigger again" /sbin/udevtrigger verbose && log_end_msg If you need some more details: http://grml.org/tmp/mdadm-root-uuid.txt regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
